Introducing Alterego: the world’s first near-telepathic wearable that enables silent communication at the speed of thought. Alterego makes AI an extension of the human mind. We’ve made several breakthroughs since our work started at MIT. We’re announcing those today.

Co-founder and CEO of Stripe's advice to ambitious young people:

Over the last decade the question I’ve gotten most often how I decide how to spend my work hours, so sharing here in case it helps anyone on the winding journey to develop theirs. The algorithm has sort of naturally converged on: 1) A mission I care deeply about that works to have positive implications at a humanity level scale 2) Good-hearted and high-octane teammates 3) Where my hours in feel like they have truly differentiated value relative to what another could provide 4) A consistently steep learning curve I remember being worried that 4 would cause me to job hop too much, but what I’ve found is if the problem is deep enough and high dimensionality enough you can have a steep learning curve for a heck of a long time. As an example, after almost 8 years at Neuralink I still feel like I find rocket-ship level learning curves to jump on every week, which I don’t think I would have predicted at the outset!

@henrythe9ths AI guide

There's a shocking fact about AI that nobody tells you: You can catch up to the public AI research frontier in just 2 weeks. Yes, really. I've built a $150M annual revenue startup over the last 8 years and If I were to start a company today, I’d drop everything and go all-in on AI. But like many busy software builders, I felt lost—overwhelmed by the noisy, crowded and fast-moving modern AI landscape. And I wasn’t alone. So I spent my entire holiday diving deep into AI research—reading 30+ papers, watching hours of lectures, analyzing trends, and catching up to the research frontier. ✨ Here’s what I learned: - You don’t need months (or years) to catch up. - You don’t need a PhD or decades of ML experience. - You need fewer than 20 papers and 2 weeks to understand the major breakthroughs shaping AI today. It's because the technology is extremely nascent and most techniques that came before are no longer relevant: - ChatGPT is barely 2 years old and Transformers are only 7 years old. - Most game-changing discoveries happened within the last 4 years, driven by a few breakthrough ideas, scaling laws, and efficient matrix multiplication. The biggest secret? Many groundbreaking AI papers with thousands of citations are surprisingly simple and applied, like adding "let's think step by step" to the prompt, or simply asking the LLM over and over again to improve its answer (Self-Refine). I realized there are tons of founders and builders in the same boat—wanting to dive deeper into AI but unsure where to start. I've created an essential AI Guide that helped me catch up, in just 2 weeks, to the frontier of public AI research to figure out where the next opportunities and gaps were: - Curated list of only the most important papers - Simple explanations of key concepts - Clear pathway to understanding the frontier of modern AI It’s perfect for: - Founders expanding into AI - Builders wanting to innovate at the frontier of AI - Investors looking to separate the signal from the noise 👇 Want the full guide? - Like and Share this post - Comment "AI Guide" - I'll send you the complete guide (ps, I’m also teaming up with @VishalVasishth, co-founder of @obviousvc with @ev (focused on large-scale societal impact companies like Twitter, Medium, Beyond Meat), to host a small meetup to discuss what's working and needs to be solved in the AI stack in SF.

@tkb417 Link boss🙏🙏

im taking out the pinned tweets tmr lock the room tmr i have the excel half complete.. plan is to automate the set up for these tickers The 250-300 tickers all gave 20-30% set up once in 2024 thats the plan in 2025… thats about 300 set ups we only need 1/3 of it as usual, we will automate it Lets Rummmbleeee in 2025

@tkb417 Please I'd like to join the group @tkb417. Kindly help with the link

324 people in the group Dec 31 deadline

@iamyesyouareno @MarioNawfal It comes down to this: do you want America to WIN or do you want America to LOSE. If you force the world’s best talent to play for the other side, America will LOSE. End of story.

Vibe has shifted a lot. It was startups or nothing in 2020.

@T3miT0pe Where have you been bro

The pinnacle of Kogi Engineering.

@j0x3yy Totally disgree, seeing how his visit was for a very symbolic and highly publicized event.

Iran gave him up, I think

@marwan_ptr @_ayoungk Is there a docker/singularity container for this?

@_Sir_MuEl @_ayoungk rmurai.co.uk/projects/Gauss…

3D Gaussian Splatting SLAM demo!

@marwan_ptr @_ayoungk Thanks

@ilyasut He's back!!

I am starting a new company:

@TechpointAfrica 223

New information on the Patricia hack! To listen to the full episode, type 223 in the comments and we'll be in your DMs.

@j0x3yy @DamilolaDecarls I wonder how people didn't see this coming

The moment AI agent is developed, Software engineers are cooked. AI agent can take over your PC, generate PRD, code an entire app, debug it and deploy it We should all start looking into farming 😂😂 @DamilolaDecarls was ahead of the curve

@cephas_asiwaju Congratulations man

Turned up for my Msc convocation. PhD next, definitely gettin it.

Watch the unveiling of @NASAAero's X-59 aircraft, set to fly this year to test quieter supersonic flight technology. The Quesst mission could help bring a return to supersonic air travel over land. Livestream starts Friday, Jan. 12 at 4pm ET (2100 UTC): go.nasa.gov/3S8deuT

@j0x3yy Surprised to see School of Logistic and Innovatiom Tech

Ifesan and Adu 🔥🔥🔥
